1:32 Although they fully know ⁴  God’s righteous decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, ⁵  they not only do them but also approve of those who practice them. ⁶ 

¹ tn Grk “likewise so also the males abandoning the natural function of the female.”

² tn Grk “burned with intense desire” (L&N 25.16).

³ tn Grk “another, men committing…and receiving,” continuing the description of their deeds. Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

⁴ tn Grk “who, knowing…, not only do them but also approve…” Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

⁵ tn Grk “are worthy of death.”

⁶ sn “Vice lists” like vv. 28-32 can be found elsewhere in the NT in Matt 15:19; Gal 5:19-21; 1 Tim 1:9-10; and 1 Pet 4:3. An example from the intertestamental period can be found in Wis 14:25-26.
